A staff-style that changes the number of lines can be applied to a partial measure in Fin14. This has not changed.
A staff-style that applies a transposition must be applied to a full measure. There has been a change in this over time. Many years ago it was possible to place a transposing staff-style on a partial measure, but it still applied to the full measure anyway. So there has not really been any change.
